Dmitry Khrustalev, a TV presenter and comedian, was removed from a flight from Kaliningrad to Moscow on July 28 after instigating a drunken disturbance. Law enforcement officials confirmed that Khrustalev was detained and faced administrative charges following the incident.

Passengers reported that the comedian’s disruptive behavior began even before boarding the flight. He allegedly voiced his displeasure loudly at the check-in counter.

Once onboard, Khrustalev reportedly walked with an unsteady gait. He then allegedly began insulting flight attendants when asked to present his boarding pass.

The flight ultimately departed without Khrustalev. The comedian’s actions included using obscene language and insulting fellow passengers, leading to his removal from the aircraft.
